The Rules

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I just don't understand it. These people in charge need to live outside the country for a while and see different cultures, different points of view, instead of being blindly stuck in their ideology.

But then they might have to second guess their "us vs them" mentality. And we definitely can't have that. /s

How would that help this situation? It seems like a corporate greed thing, and plenty of rich shitheads are well traveled.

If anything we should be asking why a majority of those construction workers probably voted for the people doing this to them.
